Work just after filing for EAD?

[ammal]

I am H4, applied for EAD (my husband's I485 in process). Expecting my EAD receipt with LIN in 30days. Can I start working as soon as I get my EAD receipt?

NO, You cannot work with EAD receipt. You have to have the EAD approved to start working. I know, but EAD is NOT like H1 where you can start working immediately after you get the receipt number.

can i work with new H1b filing receipt?

Can I start working with new H1B filing receipt? Or does the rule for working with H1B receipt apply to only H1B transfer? Thank you.
